Autotest RPC Client

arc's Issues

Short license header on every file

The Fedora review process suggested that we add a short license header to every file. Something as simple as:

Copyright (C) 2014 John Doe <[email protected]>
License: GPLv2 (see LICENSE for details)

Also, add license indication on README.MD.

Support for Atomic Groups

Needs to implement in ARC the support of create, delete, list add and remove Atomic Groups.

ImportError in arcli

arcli --help returned this error:
import arc.shared.frontend
ImportError: No modules named shared.frontend

A few days ago's version of arcli is right.

Add option -Q USERNAME, --username=USERNAME

Implement the option -Q USERNAME, --username=USERNAME for commands, in order to allow to specify an username to login or use when interacting with Autotest Server.

The default username, when this option is missing, is the proper user name (login) that the command arcli is running, otherwise It's possible to pass the environment variable ARC_USER or use the key name username inside the section server to overwrite this condition.

Support for ACLs

Needs to implement in ARC the support of create, delete, list add and remove ACLs.

Unit tests for ARC

ARC requires a set of unit tests in order to grow the code base and to feel confident that it's still running good and there isn't code breaking around.

arcli job --from-test-number RFE

This is just a couple of suggestions that I thought that could improve usage of the newly added (and great) --from-test-number option:

• could look up and set test type (it's easy to send client jobs erroneously as server jobs and vice verse - the default)
• could set the job name by default, using the test name

This would allow a user experience such as:

$ arcli job -a -m testhost -T 57

Which is great IMHO.
